Hello Puppy community !
After some WM, i wanted to try a Qt desktop like KDE.

I propose today a little novelty in Qt for Puppy, Razor-Qt 4.1 & KDE 4.9 in one ISO, two Qt desktops...

For the first, Razor-Qt 4.1, latest version :

Quote:

Razor-qt is a lightweight, Qt-based free software desktop environment for the X Window System. Unlike the KDE desktop environment which is also based on Qt, Razor-qt usually performs well even when used in computers with older hardware.

Razor-qt is still in the early stages of development.[1] As of February 2012 the environment includes a panel viewer and switcher, a desktop, an application launcher, a settings center, and sessions. These components can be enabled or disabled by the user.[2]

Razor-qt works with any modern X window manager such as Openbox, fvwm2, or KWin.

cool, I will try it out soon._________________What consenting adults do in their bedroom is none of your business so if you think there is something wrong with homosexuality and your bothered by it, then you're an idiot who needs to mind their own business.

The system, as delivered, works quite well, very fast.
I think the ubuntu entrails are a letdown, xorg refuses
to use the native 1280x1024 (same story on the new Macpup)
that works fine in Puppy Studio 1337, 3.3, dpup, bodhi etc etc

Quite a few apps that install normally in other puppies,
have missing dependencies in these (newer?) ubuntu repositories.

Nice to have a new KDE based distro, the screen is offset about
a dozen pixels to the left, probably another buntu hidden feature.

Believe me Pelo - it is!! I've been enjoying it myself very much, along with Jejy's build of KDE-4.9 desktop.

However, my heart still belongs to Jejy's build of Mate on Precise-Pup. That one I have installed fully to my hard drive while all his others ( except his XFCE which I've yet to try ) are installed frugally.

He is truly a GENIUS when it comes to compiling these desktop environments and his Razor one is the very first that I've had to work flawlessly upon my computer. Vive Jejy!!!

Hi Jejy69,
I'm a big admirer of your work with these windows managers, though I declare that I simply haven't had the time to test any So please feel free to dismiss my queries: Trinity was recently updated, do you think that it might provide a lighter alternative to KDE4.9 http://www.trinitydesktop.org/? Could Trinity be made into an updated SFS perhaps?

Nothing new inside KDE : keep the old series KDE 3.5, it's enough.

Desktop KDE is to big, to many MBs, keep these MBs for apps.
